Surah 2. Al-Baqara, Ayah 153
| يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اسْتَعِينُوا بِالصَّبْرِ وَالصَّلَاةِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَ الصَّابِرِينَ |
| Transliteration | : | yaa 'ayyuhaa 'alladhena 'aamano istaceno bi- as.- s.abr wa- as.- s.alaah 'inna 'allaah maca as.- s.aabiren |
| Pickthall | : | O ye who believe! Seek help in steadfastness, and prayer. Lo! Allah is with the steadfast. |
| Asad | : | O YOU who have attained to faith! Seek aid in steadfast patience and prayer: for, behold, God is with those who are patient in adversity. |
| Malik | : | O' You who believe! Seek My help with patience and prayer: surely, Allah is with those who are patient. |
| Yusuf Ali | : | O ye who believe! seek help with patient perseverance and prayer: for Allah is with those who patiently persevere. 157 |
Note - 157See ii. 45 and n. An additional meaning implied in sabr
is self-restraint. Haqqani defines it in his Tafsir as
following Reason and restraining Fear, Anger, and Desire.
What can be a higher reward for patience, perseverance,
self-restraint and constancy than that God should be with
us? For this promise opens the door to every kind of
spiritual well-being.
